This Friday, November 8, 2024, from 9:10 p.m. to 10:50 p.m., M6 broadcasts Nicky Larson and the scent of Cupid : a comedy which features this famous private detective, taken from a Japanese animated series from the 80s, itself adapted from the manga City Hunter by Tsukasa Hōjō. To interpret this hero in this film: Philippe Lacheau. It is he who also directed this feature film, on which he brought with him his usual crew, namely Elodie Fontan, Tarek Boudali and Julien Arruti. As a reminder, the first is none other than his partner, as well as the mother of his son Raphaël, born in December 2019.
It’s on a shoot (that of Baby-sitting 2) that the lovebirds fell in love. Today, they seem inseparable. Which leaves us to think that Philippe Lacheau has already taken his beautiful in his family refuge, located in the heart of a small town of 1,330 inhabitants, called Wavignies. It is a village in the department of Oise, which is located northeast of Beauvais, the prefecture of this department of Hauts-d-France. And it is here that the 44-year-old actor-director partly grew up (he often went there but lived in Yvelines).
Last August, during an interview for Picardy Courierwe learned more about his very strong connection with this place. “My favorite place in Picardy is Wavignies, a village in the Picardy Plateau, the cradle of my maternal family where my little mother was born. When I was very young, I went to play in my grandmother’s pretty flower garden, then, as a teenager, I played tennis with my friends and my parents on the local court.” It was also in Wavignies that this poker enthusiast filmed his first short films, “with the means at hand, a cheap video camera that made blurs and actors recruited from my friends and family”. His little brother, Pierre, was also his main actor (and they continue to work hand in hand since they wrote the screenplay for Nicky Larson and the Scent of Cupid) : “JI thank him for agreeing to endure all the torture that I inflicted on him.”

“I always take great pleasure in coming back to share holidays here with my family and my many friends. I would add that the municipality did me the honor of offering to come and plant the first of the 700 trees which will be planted in Wavignies as part of the region’s plan intended to combat global warming. I cannot finish without mentioning the Jeanne-Moreau cinema in Saint-Just-en-Chaussée which welcomes me in a full room in front of an always very warm audience each time one of my films is released..”, he also told. Confidences that he made by email, because he was at that time in South-East Asia, to shoot The Marsupilami.
The story of planting trees was also told by his parents Gérard and Huguette, during an interview with Oise Hebdoone March 2023 : “The only time I asked Philippe to make an official appearance in Wavignies was last October 18 for the ceremony. tree planting.” This is what his father, deputy mayor in charge of the environment, said.
